City of "preferace" as a tourist distination The truely "quintessential" image of The Netherlands. The Dutch have never been afraid of hard work, especially when that work was multiplied in its return, energy for effort. Along the coastline, wind is "free", it came with the "territory". It is the "value for value" thinking that has set the "tone" for Dutch reasoning and their image as "driving a hard bargin".
Windmills have been "THE" image of "Holland" (The Netherlands) for as long as any of us can remember! |
|  | Amsterdam, canals, canals, canals If Windmills are the "image" of "Holland" then canals are the image of Amsterdam..
But I decided that even with as many canals as it has, there are at least 10 times as many bridges as canals(of necessity, of course!). |

You sound like a real jerk. | pmbrtn Tue Apr 3, 2007 10:48 UTC
You are confusing the Oude Kerk and the Nieuwe Kerk here. It is the Nieuwe Kerk that houses the World Press Photography exhibition, and indeed, it is no longer a church, just a building that looks like one :-) | Rshepard Wed Jul 12, 2006 16:48 UTC
Thanks for the info. Sounds good to me. Another reason to move to Holland -- no right-wing irritants telling me how to live my life because they have a bible that tells them so. | garridogal Sun Dec 18, 2005 04:05 UTC
Wow! Look at all that sunshine! Are you sure you were in The Netherlands? ; ) |
